25 year old Jason Berken is often over-looked when discussing Orioles pitching prospects, but he is doing his part to gain some attention.
In 2008, Berken was at Bowie where he went 12-4, with a 3.58 era. In 145.2 innings, Berken allowed 141 hits, 9 homers, 38 walks, and had 125 k’s.
Making his first AAA start tonight, Berken went 7 innings, allowing 4 hits, 0 er, with 3 k’s.
He might never project as a starter for the Orioles, but he might have the potential to be another option for long-relief.
